This coffee was produced by Bekele Yutute, who grows and processes coffee on his 3.9-hectare farm, Denbi. Being able to purchase a lot from a single producer in Ethiopia is rare and incredibly special.

Bekele’s farm sits at a staggering 2150 metres above sea level. This high elevation, combined with the region’s cool climate is ideal for the slow ripening of coffee cherries, leading to denser beans and a sweeter, more complex cup profile. Bekele uses organic farming practices that rely heavily on manual labour.
